First Work of 2012

This is my first work in 2012, a Premna...
It has a lot of very unique lines, and the natural deadwood is just excellent.





Want to make a guess on the design ?

Here we go again


...I'll just buy a new sketch pad first and give it a try. hehehe.

Again Robert, the size of your material is so deceiving or that handsome guy holding it is too small.

I am assuming this tree is going to be a Robert Steven styled tree. So for a starter I'll try to imagine it to be that way...and be weird for a moment. hehehe
Just kidding Robert, here is my first attempt!

Far from my though Jun..hehe...

You're making it hard this time huh? I am just warming up this thread:evil: ...now where is Rob and the rest of the guys.

I'll try to crack it again. hehehe!

I'll take a crack at it. I need to keep practicing. Maybe in 2012 my online pals, Robert, Jun and Rob can keep posting material that we can hypothesize with. That's my word of the day....hypothesize.

Have a great weekend everyone!!!!

Just like Sam, I still need practicing. So much to learn from masters here...

Here what I thought... I see asemi cascade premna, with a little portion of root is being exposed...

Thanks for your efford and participation. The talking point is on the two contradicting line character, and they are competing at the same time...

hi,
The bottom branch looks young, straight, and in comparison with the one above not as interesting - I'd cut most of it off.

The size of these trees makes me smile - we have a very similar leaved species that has natural leaves the size of your thumb nail, so these trees appear 18" tall when they are really 40"+

cheers, Marcus

Marcus, why don't give your try before I post mine tomorrow...

Nice work, Jun.

Jun, you got any "nice" material prepared for my demo ? and how about the materials for penjing and the tray ?

It looks like the really wiggly shoot is dead, so I'd cut back the live part and regrow a canopy to frame the shorted dead part making a much smaller tree.
Then I see it at a tropical beach resort

Hi Robert



Gretings Pavel

I like both designs from pavel and Rob, very nice...
That trunk with shari is still alive up to the last terminal, the sections are dead.

Robert,
Don't worry about the nice material, We are looking all over the Philippines for a very difficult material. be ready!

As for the penjing we will be preparing 5 rocks of different sizes, for you to choose from.

BTW, Are you sure you still want a foliage drawn for the material above? That's a lot of clue you have given us.

That's great Jun, I like challenge..but you should get my permission for the final demo result before have it posted on IBC...

For penjing, I assume you have prepared the tray as well..and please don't forget the green moss. Can't wait....

Yes, I want to see how you guys gonna set the foliage...

Sure Robert. If it turns out nice we'll post it all over the net, if not we'll keep it to ourselves hehehe






my pot suggestion... sorry can't help it.

jun

Looks nice Jun. Just for your info, the trunk is alive up to the last terminal...
